At a young age, her family moved to St. John.  She was a graduate of Hilbert High School with the class of 1950. After high school, Lorraine worked as a receptionist at Brillion Iron Works. On September 15, 1956 she married Joseph Geiger at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in St. John.  Once they started their family, Lorraine helped Joe on their farm in Brillion and focused on raising their kids.  She later was employed at Mullin’s Gas Station in Brillion. Lorraine was an active member of Holy Family Catholic Church, where she volunteered in the office and was a long time chairperson on the funeral meal committee. She loved helping out when she could. Lorraine was also a member of the Christian Mothers, the Homemakers and multiple card clubs, especially cribbage and sheepshead. Joe and Lorraine enjoyed playing cards and traveling together. She loved gardening and working in her yard on the farm.
